My friend and I have been avid players of Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, and when the Quake Wars beta came out he grabbed a key (my PC isn’t good enough D:). According to him, the balance was completely thrown out the window in favor of the Strogg, which are insanely overpowered compared to humans, and the quake-like physics and control from ET are gone, with more of a “battlefield” feel to the control and running and jumping.

I played the beta since day one and it was a really fun and cool game….
the only thing is that the animations are ugly and is difficult to aim at someone who looks like its having convulsions while running

I’ve been playing since Day 1 of Beta 1, and I still play as I have time.

It’s ready as far as I’m concerned.

There’s some balance issues with a few weapons and the map but they’ve been tweaked far as I’ve heard.

The net code is still screwed up and most of the ranked servers lag until they are rebooted, and then they start lagging again several hours later.
It’s safe to say IMO though that they’ve fixed the issue for the demo and retail or else they would have pushed it back again.

I don’t know who you’ve been talking to but I don’t see much bad feedback on the official forums.

This game’s public beta was flawless compared to BF2’s the way I see it.

As far as the system requirements, I can’t say much on that as I have a high-end system that runs it smoothly but I’ve talked to a few people who say they have low to mid-end systems who don’t have much trouble on medium-ish settings.

It’s definitely a game worth buying.

@Celestian: I agree. I’ve heard, read, watched videos and I haven’t seen anything negative about this game either. In fact, I can tell you that I had first hand experience with the beta and I can tell you I am super stoked about this title.

I guess that depends on what quarry you dwell.

“Based on the community feedback the game’s beta(s) have received so far”

What community feedback on the game’s beta? Guess I live under a rock but I’ve not heard anything bad.
